Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v5.342 NSD2 Sarah Leigh Phenotypes for gene: NSD2 were changed from Intrauterine growth retardation; Growth delay; Microcephaly; Muscular hypotonia; Neurodevelopmental delay; Intellectual disability; No OMIM number to Rauch-Steindl syndrome, OMIM:619695; Rauch-Steindl syndrome, MONDO:0859219
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.731 NSD2 Ivone Leong Classified gene: NSD2 as Green List (high evidence)
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.731 NSD2 Ivone Leong Added comment: Comment on list classification: NSD2 has been given a green gene rating based on the evidence provided by Konstantinos Varvagiannis. NSD2 is not associated with any phenotypes on OMIM or Gene2Phenotypes.
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.731 NSD2 Ivone Leong Gene: nsd2 has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.730 NSD2 Ivone Leong Phenotypes for gene: NSD2 were changed from Intrauterine growth retardation; Growth delay; Microcephaly; Muscular hypotonia; Neurodevelopmental delay; Intellectual disability to Intrauterine growth retardation; Growth delay; Microcephaly; Muscular hypotonia; Neurodevelopmental delay; Intellectual disability; No OMIM number
Intellectual disability - microarray and sequencing v2.510 NSD2 Konstantinos Varvagiannis gene: NSD2 was added

Penetrance for gene: NSD2 were set to unknown
Review for gene: NSD2 was set to GREEN
gene: NSD2 was marked as current diagnostic
Added comment: PMID: 29892088 reports on 2 individuals with de novo SNVs affecting NSD2 (WHSC1). Both individuals presented with pre- and postnatal growth retardation, hypotonia, developmental delay / intellectual disability, as well as microcephaly. The authors suggest partial overlap with the phenotype of Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS). Seizures are not part of the phenotype.The first subject had a splice site mutation while the second individual had a stopgain variant (affecting the PWWP domain).

PMID: 29760529 describes a further patient with de novo nonsense mutation in NSD2. The boy was evaluated for probable growth delay ("low physical development"), hypotonia, psychomotor delay and microcephaly. The variant affected the SET domain.

Three individuals with de novo likely loss-of-function (two frameshift and one stop gained) variants in Decipher [ https://decipher.sanger.ac.uk/search?q=NSD2#research-variants/results ].

A further patient with de novo frameshift mutation in NSD2 and a phenotype overlapping WHS reported in ClinVar [ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/547999/ ]

PMID: 29884796 (Zollino M and Doronzio PN) comments that NSD2 (WHSC1) is a neurodevelopmental gene with a role in growth delay, intellectual disability and dysmorphic facial features.

PMID: 30244530 describes patients with 4p16.3 microdeletions spanning (exclusively) NSD2 and reviews the literature on patients with small microdeletions reported to date. All relevant individuals present with developmental delay and (rather mild) intellectual disability apart from other characteristics such as microcephaly, growth retardation and some facial features also observed in WHS.

In Decipher one individual (286913) with a single CNV spanning exclusively NSD2 presenting with IUGR, failure to thrive, feeding difficulties, postnatal microcephaly, hypotonia, developmental delay as well as possibly relevant facial features.

The gene is included in ID gene panels offered by various labs (either as NSD2 or WHSC1).

As a result it can be considered for inclusion in the panel as green.
